Blog #3: Research Proposal and Tentative Thesis

Blog #3: Research Paper and Tentative Thesis
1) The topic that I choose is about the Native Americans living comfortable lifestyle leads obesity and diabetes. I will express the words “comfortable lifestyle” based on personal experience, because I resided in a Native American community. If the Native American communities such as the Pima Indians living in the Maricopa County area do not address the issues of obesity and diabetes, the nation may fall to extinction in years to come due to "comfortable lifestyles". With statistics, I will be able to show how many Pima Indian are diagnose with obesity and diabetes.The paper will bring awareness to the attending audience which may allow to change their lifestyles to avoid such health problems.
2) My question for the topic: “Does living comfortable lifestyles lead to obesity and diabetes in Native American communities?”
3) The thesis for the topic: Native American living in comfortable lifestyles have a greater risk for obesity and diabetes.
4) The outline for the topic:
a) What defines “comfortable lifestyle” in Native American communities?
b) What are the effects of living a comfortable lifestyle?
c) What is diabetes?
d) What is obesity?
e) How can this problem be addressed in Native American communities before it
is too late?
5) The purpose of my topic is inform and persuade the audience of obesity and diabetes is result of living a "comfortable lifestyle" and use the Pima Indian community as a resource to make my point. By doing so, I hope to bring awareness of what types of medical conditions of living a "comfortable lifestyle" may impose on their own health.
